WHY John Bright, after spesking(in

The mandy PANTY sentiment that re-
volts against hanging woman does no
honor to our humanity. 1t Is not
healthy. The woman who unsexes her
self by crime, has also unsexed herself
before the courts and in the judgment OF
men. The question Is beyond this. how
ever. Is not this objection to hanging
women, merely sign OF that deeper
and more general feeling against hang
ing under any circumstances, which
seems to pervade many civilized COM
munities? This sentiment Is now OBJ
served 10 the discussions as TO some less
barbarous methods Of. conducting execu-
tions, and in many instances takes the
form of positive revolt against all exc
cations. This century, before 1t closes,
should find some other method OF dis
posing of criminals than by killing
them. Judicial murder does not.prevent
injudicial murder.

FRANCIS NJ MURPHY, Ine great temper
ance apostle, has attacked the Chicago
strongbolds Of drunkenness, and is max
ing the most moving appeals to the sots

his winning persussiveness won many
signatures to his total abstinence pledge.

The foreign correspondents OF the
metropolitan dailies refer the great
activity 10 French military circles TO
Gen. Boulanger's secretary, Col. Jung,
an Alsatian and Il very brilliant military
officer. Col. Jung has spent several
years studying the military tactics and
movements Of Germany and express
es the opinion that France is abundant
ly able to hold her own In a military
contest with Germany, provided France
makes the first movement In an inva.
sion Of Alsace Lorraine and secure first
victory there. The French general
seems In no haste to precipitate con-
flict, as delay only adds strength to
French arms and armaments. The poll
cy seems to be to root out the old mill
tary officers who might antagonize the
plans OF the commander In chief and
supply their places with young men
who will be more en-rapport with the
brilliantly aggressive policy of their
chief. In the meantime matters are by
no means settled In Eastern Europe, and
the attention Of Prussia would be fully
as much distracted by hostilities there
as France possibly could be. England is
certainly menaced in her India posses
sions by Russia and this very menace
compels her to take watchful and
waiting attitude rather than an aggres-
sve one. Germany Ia fomenting discon-
tent along the French frontier, has no
confidence In the power OF the French
government to prevent war, in case the
people clamor for 1t, and is ready for an
attack upon France upon the slightest
overt act. The situation is not only criti-
cal, but so extremely complicated that
any clear prophecy as to the probable
issue of events, even in any given case,
cannot be made.

What he Says About the Re-
frigerator.
Learning that Il. X. Claridge, of the
Texas Stockman and Farmer, OF this
city had been rather sharply criticized
on account OF little talk he made In late
refrigerator meetings held In this city.
LIGHT reporter, desiring to hear his
side OF the story, asked hun about the
matter, and here, In substance, 10 his
reply:
said very little in the meeting, and
that little was more for the purpose OF
exciting discussion, to the end that a
better understanding Of the matter
might be had. | objected to the low
price mentioned for beef in the Marquis
De Mores' prospectus, considering time
to be covered by the contract which he
required. objected still more to the
proposition embodied In the report OF
the local committee, because Ii was less
liberal than that OF the Marquis
De Mores, in several important
particulars. For instance, the Marquis
DE Mores proposed TO erect a plant with
capacity TO slaughter three hundred
beeves and four hundred muttons per
day, while the san Antonio Meat Com
pany did not. The former guaranteed
dividend to the stockholders, while the
latter did not, and then the Marquis DE
Mores suggestion of prices to be paid
for meat stock was more liberal than
that of the local committee. And as be-
fore stated. while nv object In remarks
made at those meetings was, If possible,
to get at a reason for the very apparent
diserepancies in the two propositions,

sjtion was correct and have vet to see

Terms mentioned were too low and too
hard, refer you to the fact that the cir
cular since sent out by the committee
raises the price a quarter of cent per
pound on the head per day to be guar
apteed, and PROPOSES to buy upon the
open market. whatever additional
stock NAV be required.

Why is it that three bottles of B. q. B. are
sold in Atlanta TO one of any other blood
remedy, and twice as much consumed in the
State of Georgia as any other preparation?
No one need take our word but simply ask the
druggists. Ask the people They are cOmpe-
tent witnesses. Six houses in Atlanta are buy
ing b. B. b. in five and ten gross lots, and
some of them buy as often as every two
months Why these unprecedented sales here
at home with so little advertising? Modesty
forbids US making n reply. Had B. b. b. been

it would not be necessary to be bOlstered up
with crutches of page advertisements. Merit
